Slight Figure Of Speech (Live At PNC Arena, North Carolina/2015) - The Avett Brothers[00:00:00]
Written by:Scott Yancey Avett/Timothy Seth Avett/Robert William Crawford/Jr.[00:00:01]
They say you've got to lose a couple fights to win[00:00:14]
It's hard to tell from where I'm sitting[00:00:17]
They say that this is where the fun begins[00:00:20]
I guess it's time that I was quitting[00:00:23]
A slight figure of speech[00:00:28]
I cut my chest wide open[00:00:32]
They come and watch us bleed[00:00:35]
Is it art like I was hoping now[00:00:38]
They said I hope that you will never change[00:00:44]
I went and cut my hair[00:00:47]
They say don't take your business to the big time[00:00:50]
I bought us tickets there[00:00:53]
A slight figure of speech[00:00:59]
I cut my chest wide open[00:01:03]
They come and watch us bleed[00:01:06]
Is it art like I was hoping now[00:01:09]
What did you expect[00:05:25]
And what did you forget[00:05:26]
That to live you let go of me with each step[00:05:26]
It becomes a progression[00:05:28]
I won't let regret manifest[00:05:29]
To aggression[00:05:30]
Are you to assess what I've been[00:05:31]
What I am or become[00:05:32]
Did you stop to accept how pathetically dumb[00:05:33]
It can be to[00:05:34]
Attack those around cause you're[00:05:35]
True to color a town a time or a place[00:05:35]
It's not you it's not mine[00:05:38]
And besides it is gone[00:05:38]
And you never will find it again[00:05:39]
But I don't want to fight[00:05:40]
I just ask let me be[00:05:41]
I won't give the chance to be my enemy[00:05:42]
So go home[00:05:43]
Think it through[00:05:44]
A jet plane and a big idea[00:05:46]
I jump over the sea[00:05:49]
What ifs hot on my trail[00:05:52]
But that can't catch me no[00:05:55]
A slight figure of speech[00:06:00]
I cut my chest wide open[00:06:03]
They come and watch us bleed[00:06:07]
Is it art like I was hoping now[00:06:10]
